UEFA Champions League: Brahim Diaz's sole goal was enough for clinical Real Madrid to secure a 1-0 away victory over a resilient RB Leipzig in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League last 16 tie.

Leipzig started brightly on home soil and thought they had opened the scoring with just two minutes played, but Benjamin Sesko's goal was ruled offside.

Courageous Leipzig continued to be offensively-minded and came close in the 10th minute when Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin had to save a shot from Sesko, reports Xinhua.
